Owners Jeanne and Ken Burton have been running the business since the 1980s. Fat Boy grilled up its first burger in 1955, across the road from the former Brunswick Naval Air Station.
Brokers Magnusson Balfour listed the reason for sale as retirement, but the listing doesn’t mention the restaurant by name.
